250 million years ago the Siberian Traps erupted and extinguished 95% of all life on Earth. The Siberian Traps were a 5 mile long fissure that opened and poured magma for years! It is called the "Great Dieing" and the Permian Extinction!

The end of the world is already a given, once the sun dies all life on Earth will end. Sure, it won't be for quite a while but it will happen.

Other than that, if you're talking about the extinction of the human race, I think that is most likely to be caused by contagion, some sort of new virus that is fatal to us and that mutates too quickly for medicine to stop it.



You're right. But there are many possibilities of the end of the world before that time. Colliding galaxies, giant planetoids, and other new theories that arise with new information. Like the movie 2012. That was a mixture of the mayan myth and the more recently discovered neutrinos. Plus there's wandering stars, comets, etc. Sooooo many different possibilities, the aging of the sun is just the most reliable.
